Why does no one understand? I cannot lie here. I want to fight and die beside my brother and beside him, though he loves me not. What hope remains for me? The Steward turns to look at me, his gaze both stern and sad. My heart leaps amazed. It were almost as if l looked upon the Lord Aragorn. I sense rare nobility and great strength within this man too. He gently smiles upon me; his grey eyes kind and insightful. I sense an inner pain there, reflecting mine own. Maybe Lord Aragorn is not the only man of worth? |
Another drabble written for the "There and Back" challenge. This is my version of Éowyn’s first impression of Faramir. at the first meeting Tolkien described in his book .I imagine it takes place around March 20th,depending on how quickly they recover from their injuries. We know the Host departs on March 18th from Minas Tirith. I imagine this taking place two days after my story “Facing the Darkness” ends. |
